The lead changed hands repeatedly during the first half but the Golden Eagles got on top late and took a 39-33 lead into halftime.

Bradshaw scored the first five points out of the locker room as Cornerstone built a double-digit lead that they’d hold most of the rest of the game. Concordia clawed back to within four but Steigenga carried Cornerstone back to a ten-point lead and the eventual nine-point victory.

“This is always a tough place for us and give them credit,” coach Kim Elders said after the game, “they played well on their home court and we made too many mistakes with the ball to give them more opportunities.”

NAIA #1-ranked Cornerstone will travel to NAIA #5-ranked Indiana Tech on Saturday (1/20/18) at 3 p.m. in a key battle near the top of the WHAC standings.
